The mini Preston is so adorable and I think I just fell in love with pale lemon! Thanks for posting such wonderful pics! Enjoy the rest of your vacation and swimming with the dolphins :smile1:
 
The mini Preston looks perfect on you! If you don't mind my asking, how tall are you?


About 5'4 1/2". Yes, I'm claiming that half inch as DD gets closer and closer! :D

I love being able to help all you ladies out, whether it's to enable or to realize it's not the right bag for you. I get so much help here from everyone else, I feel good to return the favor!

I didn't even consider the mini till I saw all your pics. Now I'm wondering if I should trade my regular for the mini. I have the regular in graphite and don't consider it overly large. And I feel like the mini would be a tad too small. But maybe not!

I'm a big bag person but I'm very impressed that this carries what I need. Now, I'm on a mini vacation and not carrying my daily stuff, so.... At the same time, it may make me think twice about what I 'need' to carry, and it will definitely be better on my back, which has been giving me trouble with helping my dad up and down out of chairs/cars, pushing in wheelchair (a good 100 lbs more than me), etc.

I've already thought about a second one in a more year round color.

Well I love it! I have to go to the store to get a price adjustment on my regular Preston (they charged me $20 too much) so I plan to play with the mini while I'm there!

Well I love it on you! I'm going into the store tomorrow to get a price adjustment (they charged me $20 too much on my regular Preston) and I'm going to play with the minis while I'm there!

I'll be checking to see what your thoughts are when you get back!

I'll be sure to check back in! I need to take my daughter with me. She's my fashion consultant! She loves the one I got but hasn't seen the mini in person. I'll show her yours and your daughters pics of it.

Well I stuck with my sea mist regular size! I looked at the mini a LOT and loved it. It's so cute. But I feel like I'd have to pick and choose what to carry or arrange things a certain way. And I often throw something in my bag to carry in from my car (like an empty coffee tumbler) and I wouldn't be able to do that with the mini.

I also debated between keeping the sea mist or exchanging for the ecru with sea mist trim. In the end, I decided I fell in love with this color for a reason and I should keep the one I had!

While at the store, I also looked at the Cafe Carryall in sea mist they'd just put out and it was absolutely gorgeous. I decided the Preston is just more fun and more my style.

The ecru is awesome, but I'd be really afraid of the light color.

I totally understand the pick and choose thing to fit the smaller bag. As I said, I'll be interested to see how it works for me on a daily basis. I don't carry a coupon binder by any means, but I'm trying to get better about using them and they end up in an envelope... Eventually. LOL! I also put water bottles and odds and ends in my purse, but I also use recycle/green shopping bags, so I could always keep one in the front to use if need be. It'll be interesting to see how long I'll be happy in this size....
